If you are interested in knowing more here are some resources I think explain more about the Gestalt approach and have a general connection to Gestalt.
BOOKS
To get you familiar with some Gestalt thinking in particular that change happens when we experience or see things differently, here are some suggestions that are not therapy texts but introduce the concept.
Alexandra Horowitz walks her dog the same path everyday. In this book she takes along several experts who point out to her things on her walk she has never noticed or has been intrigued by. The experts are geologists, typographer's, botanists and their interest lies in different things along the walk. This a lovely book which demonstrates the power of 'how we habitually see things' and what it's like to see things differently. For more info CLICK HERE
